The BEST Show on Television this year, bar none Tatiana Maslany has come from nowhere to absolutely shine in this complicated and intriguing mystery that unfolds like a wonderful flower before your eyes. How one actress can play five very much different characters (brilliantly, with different accents, body language and mannerisms) in this show, and at times, three wildly different woman in one scene will blow your mind. What an absolute tour-de-force this show is, and if she does not win the Emmy for lead dramatic actress, then there is no justice in this world. AT this point, I have watched every episode twice, and I'm still seeing little things for the first time. WOW

Orphan Black A thrilling Sci-Fi that stays focused on its true fictitious core, clones, will keep you on the edge of your seat. And speaking of clones, actress Tatiana Maslany gives the most breath taking performance on television. She plays all spectrums of people from a stiff soccer mom to a transgender roughian. Granted the first few episodes are a bit mysterious and confusing but the instant you see Tatiana Maslany 3x in one seen, buckle up because, as Cosima (the bisexual stoner scientist says) welcome to the trip.

The first season is wow! However, as each season progressed the wow has been slowly declining to just ok. Too bad. The show had such potential. Tatiana is still awesome throughout the show. I still feel like I'm watching different actresses in each clone.

A victim of its medium The plot suffers from having to generate weekly climaxes, the relentless drumbeat of of omg! moments eats into the plots, the acting, everything. There's little time for the thoughtful introspective investigation(s) the story dances around: Who is she, who am I, and what is it in me that makes me myself? But despite its shortcomings, including not-completely-intolerable plot inconsistencies, it's good action, compelling story,good to great acting... Tatiana Maslany gets a nomination for best ensemble cast.

Best show, best actress ever. EVER! There is nothing about this show not to like. The writing is phenomenal, the shows pace is rapid and every episode will leave you wanting more. Tatiana Maslany turns in the performance of a lifetime (and I'm bitterly angry that she was snubbed for an Emmy nomination) along with an outstanding supporting cast. There simply isn't nor has there ever been anything quite like Orphan Black and certainly no one comes even close to the pure talent for Tatiana Maslany. If you haven't seen this show, stop whatever you are doing and get to it! You won't regret, I promise!!!!

Can't...stop...watching! As much as I recommend this series I also recommend watching it straight through because you are going to want to. This means that when Season 2 begins in April you should just not watch it until the end of the season so you can binge it. Watch Fringe to pass the time. Well crap! I watched season 2 episode by episode and it worked out. Now I need to wait another 9 months to see season 3. Now I'm grumpy.

Adddictive So many twist and turns can't stop watching. If you're into cinematography you may like this series as one very talented and versatile actress (Tatiana Maslany) plays many parts. The shots of how they blend them together are amazing. Probably green or blue screen but the characters even touch, really cool to try and figure out :) This is classified as Drama but it's more Sci Fi -Drama; parallel to the concept of the novel "Brave New World" by Aldous Huxley

To the one of many, you're so MIELENKLINTOINEN and TORRID! To you and the entire crew Thank You for the entertainment. I picked it up in the third season, boy I'm in for a treat when I view season 1 + 2.

Orphan black They are amazing actor,good and bad twin sister fight, argument, discusses plan,watch some guy doing horrible thing over twin. I want meet them. I like his foster brother paul. He had cool house, cool talk and they actor were so cool. Also serious show as ever. I like their hair style and bathroom and they play around lot. They did not know had twin sister frown and figure out themselves. Why clone was follow them. End show amazing family.

Yay The amazing Tatiana Maslany continues to blow minds with her performances as clones with different accents, mannerisms, styles, and personalities. The plot thickens as the clones decide to deal with the Dyad Corporation in different ways. Meanwhile, Sarah's trying to figure out where they all come from, and what her adoptive mother Mrs. S (Maria Doyle Kennedy) has to do with it all. Jordan Gavaris continues to steal scenes as Sarah's adopted brother Felix. If you're in the #cloneclub, you know what to do.

A thriller to the core! I didn't watch this series when it first started, but only because I didn't know it existed. I had been browsing sites and random movies, having absolutely nothing to do or watch - since it was the weekend and my shows only show during weekdays - and I stumbled across the title and cover. I had literally just finished watching a movie staring Tatiana Maslany and that's what had caught my attention. I thought she had done a great job in the movie so I started watching episode one. I was absolutely hooked from the beginning. Cosima wasn't kidding. Welcome to Clone Club. "It's a trip man."

Orphan Black Again British TV have done it again! Outstanding series! Awesome casting! This is why I love watching BBÇ ch.! Tatiana have proven to be da leading lady of the clone world in this series. Although I've only seen her work in a few things, she's always delivered when playing a role. She' s come along way from her much younger years. I can say more about da show,but I won't. We all that have seen&watched da show can agree on just how much satisfaction they've got from this show. So congrats & Tatiana u rock!

Oustanding! Orphan Black most definitely should be at the top of every "best drama" list. The story is unique and intriguing. The writing is superb. The acting is tour-de-force by one Tatiana Maslany. Playing 5 characters must be exhausting, if not confusing but for us, we see seemless transitions from one character to the next, even with the myriad of mannerisms, dialects, body languages, and depth. I watched the first 2 seasons in 2 days! It is edge-of-your-seat drama at its best. Watch it or regret you didn't.

The first TV Series I have ever awarded 5 stars Amazingly talented actress meets well written science-fiction story. I guarantee you will forget the same actress is playing all of the 'sisters' - and that's just in the first episode. If you like this kind of stuff but have longed for a show that was not completely brain-dead, your show is here... in spades.

smart, edgy, delightfully raw. It's been awhile since a show kept me wondering what will happen next & it was seamlessly easy to become emotionally invested in the characters. The writers are fearless! Can't wait to see darkest shades of Orphan Black's story continue to unfold with an ever present back drop of hope, humor, brutality and bloody strong survival instinct.. bring it on!

clone club fan member I was immediately hooked on this show. I could not fathom anyone who would have an imagination to think of the intriguing twists and suspenseful nature of this series. It is a great combination of science fiction, ethical dilemmas, religion, suspense, drama and interpersonal relationships neatly wrapped up all at once. Sarah, Ally, and Cosima clones would be lost without Queen Felix, acting coach, babysitter, "Jane of all trades", inserting a bit of humor.

Orphan Black is a "Must Binge Watch" show This show is amazing. I didn't know if I was going to like it at first but I was hooked after the second episode. So many questions to be answered. It makes you think, What if this was you or someone you know. What would you do? - Its a must see Syfy

Killer Season Two!! Stunning writing, directing, acting and editing. I feel so lucky to receive BBC in Iowa in the first place but then be able to enjoy this and other quality shows with real meat...love it. Recommend that new viewers in 2014 go back and watch the S1 episodes. This is television well received by all ages (I'm 45, my daughter is 24, we are equally drawn to the storyline) but if you have a problem understanding the dialog due to various thick accents, just turn on the closed captioning.

Never seen anything quite like it It's like 'Dollhouse' meets 'Alias' meets 'Fight Club'. The actress is phenomenal. I wasn't sure if I made the right choice in buying a show I have never heard of, but definitely not regretting it now. There are a lot of gratuitous sex scenes, so fair warning, it's very late night cable-esque at times.

Orphan Black Really enjoyed the first two episodes. Lead actress is very talented. Writers too. I get the sense that each episode is going to end with some sort of mild cliffhanger in the way of the old b movie serials. But a big fan of the SD/HD pricing structure. $11 more for HD seems a bit exorbitant

One of my favorite shows on TV today! The promo clips on BBCA certainly had me intrigued, and I got to watch the first episode when it was aired, subsequent viewings have had to be postponed due it not being appropriate for younger viewers. But thankfully, BBCA airs it at least twice and I can buy any episodes I miss (or the full season) right here!

Orphan Black season 1 was a killer show - good plot, great acting, compelling story While season one grew roots rather quickly, and pulled you in, season two (so far) doesn't. Whereas, season two so far seems to me as it had been going 140mph per hour and instantly slamming on the emergency break.. It does have a plot, is interesting, interwoven interesting, while the story line/plot drags you in. Tatiana Mansley, with good acting of multiple parts is interesting. Must see...

This show... If you're not watching it,you're doing something wrong. Although new,this show has become a huge hit all over the world and you're definitely missing out if you haven't seen the first episode;heck, the first two minutes! I've been a huge fan for a while and don't regret a thing. Get ready for action,romance,comedy,and more when you jump on the fast paced roller coaster more commonly known as Orphan Black.

One of My All Time Favorite Shows Extremely well done, the lead actress is amazing. In my head, each of her characters are acted by different people. Every episode has something surprising, but in hindsight makes total sense. The only thing that disappoints, is having to wait until Spring for the next season...

An Absolutely Amazing show! I've only seen the first two seasons, so I cannot speak for season three, but, this show is absolutely amazing. It's not the most kid friendly, there are a few sex scenes, but, if your kids are in high school, it's possible that you could watch it as a family. Tatiana Maslany is absolutely amazing, and does a wonderful job playing, not one character, but eight or nine different characters! I recommend this to people of high school age, and older.

This show will make you binge watch! After watching episode one and getting attached to the characters you will not want to stop watching! Its has perfectly placed plot twists and amazing acting. It will consume your TV watching believe me!

ORPHAN BLACK This is absolutely the most well written, edge of your seat television drama with more twists & turns that you never see coming, thoroughly exciting show I have ever seen! Brilliant! With incredible acting and casting. At the end of each episode you are literally falling off of your chair and counting the long, long minutes until the next episode! AMAZING!!

Orphan Black R-O-C-K-S I watched the first show, just to see what all the hype was about- and I fell in Love with it! The Lead Actress is the most talented Actor I think I've ever seen, My hat is off to you, Tatiana! Keep up the Good Work!

Clever, non-stop thrill ride This is one of the best -- if not the best -- TV shows I have ever watched. The show keeps the viewer in constant suspense, takes the viewer through emotional highs and lows, and features an incredibly clever, unique plot that touches on the scientific, philosophical, and religious. I would highly recommend this to everyone, though make sure you have enough time to watch it; once you start, is is very difficult to stop watching.

Love the show I knew from seeing the commercials for this show before season 1 i had wanted to wach this show i binge watched the whole first season five times before the second season and then i waited each week for the new episode

Free with Amazon prime & on DroidTV- grt series btw Google u r ripping us off, when r old movies going 2get cheaper? like most older films u can get the dvd 4 $5 @walmart, but on here every film is almost $9.99 unless having a promotion,&TV episodes $1.99 ea Wth. I &lt;3 u Google, but u must stop this madness!

Huh? I've bought both seasons and paid more by buying one at a time. y can't I get the season only episodes also for free. I still love the show. The seasons should be extended don't ya all out there agree with me? Send a shout out if u do" I want more"!! :) :)

This show had me hooked within the first 15 seconds of the very first show!! I was then a member of the Clone Club for Life!!! This show is one of the absolute best!!! Tatiana Maslany is so amazing you completely forget that she is playing all of the different clones. She makes them all so believable. Ari Millen has also stepped into the clones with such ease. This is a show you will be able to watch over and over and learn something new every single time. The writers on this show are the best. The supporting cast are some of the best out there. You just fall in love with each and every one of them. This show is a must watch!!!!!

Best show I've ever watched. This show is an amazing, fast paced action drama. Tatiana Maslany effortlessly plays at least seven clones, each with their different personalities and mannerisms. She plays each character so well that you sometimes forget that it's actually just her playing all of these clones. John and Graeme and also magnificent writers, they have done a fantastic service to all of their female characters and the plot gets better with every episode/season. I seriously cannot fully express my love for this show in words.
